95% of our lives are Spillover!
95%
of our words and actions are not mistakes, they are an overflow of our
hearts. Very little of our lives are premeditated. So 95 percent of what
we say and do is who we really are. We like to think of all the
mistakes that we made last year that we are not going to make this year
because we think deep inside there is a good and sincere person who
makes mistakes. No. Deep inside there is a heart
that is always full that always overflows 95% of our waking moments and
that is why we will make the same “mistakes” we made last year unless
we do two things.
1. Guard our hearts with all diligence for out of the heart flow the issues of life – Proverbs 4:23…DAILY
2. We not be conformed to the patterns of this world but be transformed by the renewing of our minds that we may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God – Romans 12:2…DAILY
The only people who truly make a lot of honest mistakes are very young children.

This is how it happens
We send our children off to temples of humanism and expose
them daily to the humanistic faith. A
religion is just a different view of metaphysics, epistemology and ethics, if
it is not Christian, it is another.
University professors that hate God and mock Christianity teach our
children that their conscience is some left over evil thing from a bygone era
when we were religious and they need to get rid of it to fully succeed and enjoy
life. By the end of their first year in
college, 80% of children raised in Evangelical Christian homes apostatize…The
youth pastor thinks Rob Bell is cool…enter Lady Gaga. Jesus Christ the same
yesterday and today and forever. My passion, my hope, my prayer is that there
is yet a generation that will fear God right in the midst of the tidal wave of
what we have redefined ourselves to be, believe and tolerate.

WHAT SHALL WE DO? By Anna
What shall we do for George's birthday,
It is almost George's birthday,
Give him a ball that says "Penn"
No, that's more useless than a hen.
What shall we for Jules' birthday,
It is almost Jules' birthday,
Give him a ball, from off the wall,
No, that would not do at all.
What shall we do for Lindsie's birthday,
It is almost Lindsie's birthday,
Give her a flower, for half an hour,
No, that would make her cross and sour.
What shall we do for Anthony's birthday,
It is almost Anthony's birthday,
How about give him a cobra snake,
Think of all the effort it would take!
What shall we do for Esther's birthday,
It is almost Esther's birthday,
Give her a canary, and then call Carrie,
Yes! That would make her very merry.
What shall we do for these children's birthdays,
Send them away for a week and a mirthday,
And when they arrive from their roam,
Welcome them with open arms to their home.
THE END

Raising Boys
Raising
boys. I send them outside, I don’t drug them. Yes, let them be rough I
am not afraid of band aids.
Feminists and their male enablers have slowly but surely destroyed what used to be a man. We raise our daughters to compete fiercely with anything and everything that looks like a man and no…no. Girls cannot do everything that a man can do. There are a few loud ones, loud and angry holed up in the Ivy league tower of theory and thesis who quickly punish any that object to a woman on the front line. Some of them have been seen behind the high gates of tenure, waiting eagerly to humiliate any young women who might entertain a love for husband and child above self-fulfillment and self-indulgence and self-discovery and how to love myself even more. But there is an antithesis: God made the woman for the man and the man is from woman and they need one another and the state cannot replace the now easily disposable men.
What are we Christian women teaching and modeling to our sons and daughters? Titus 2 or the Feminist experiment? We are indeed surrounded by a colossal failure of this experiment and yet we press on in the face of the havoc it has wrecked on the family. I teach my sons that character, courage, honor is to be valued far above self-centeredness and mesmerizing buttons to push. Jesus, Moses and Elijah talked with God as a man speaks to his friend..I want my sons to know God and prepare daily to be men that can love their wives and disciple their children in the faith. I want them to look to Christ, not the backstreet boys…or who is hot today?
What am I saying to my girls? Go out, have fun, use protection and cover the tracks of your sin at all cost, we will make sure you have access to the morning after pill or the months later procedure, get your heart broken a dozen times but you are a strong and powerful young woman..fly…Twelve men may use and discard you but hopefully you find one that is tired of using and discarding and you can settle together for as long as you can stand each other. There is a God in Heaven and as the poet said, the mills of God grind slowly, yet they grind exceeding small. Somebody dropped the ball a long time ago and today we are surrounded by dysfunction and we are trying to fund it away..or we could wake up and not ask “how high” when the national organization of women says “jump”.
